GOD'S GOT THIS!


For with God nothing will be impossible.” Luke 1:37 NKJV

Have you ever felt overwhelmed and almost hopeless?  Have you struggled to see your way through the forrest that is before you?  Have you ever been up against something that was so much bigger than your ability to overcome it?

I know I have - many times.

Sometimes life is like a sea of darkness and difficulty.  You are searching for answers only to find no hope for what lies ahead.

Then...

A little light shows up and leads you to the place where you are supposed to be.

Can you imagine what was going through the mind of Mary as the angel was revealing to her that she would be the mother of the son of God?  Can you imagine the emotions she must have felt? How overwhelmed she must have been?

Life as she knew it was very oppressive and difficult and hard.  People prayed for the Messiah to come and deliver them from the Roman regime.

Then...

An angel showed up and tells her that she would soon be pregnant with the God's son - the Messiah.

I can imagine the emotions she must have felt from excited to very very confused - even to the point of doubting.

Then...

The angel says, "Oh, by the way, just to show you that this is true - your relative Elizabeth (you know - the one that is really old), is also pregnant and will soon deliver a son, for nothing is impossible with God."

What a light in the midst of great darkness.  What hope that must have brought.  How thrilled she must have been!

What is your impossible thing today?  What is it that overwhelms you and makes you feel like giving up?  What darkness are you facing that needs an infusion of hope and light in your life?

The reality is this - "There is nothing impossible with God today."  He's got it covered - whatever might be.

Isaiah 55:8-9 - “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord . “For  as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite. Ps 147:5 NKJV

The truth is this - "God's Got This."  Trust Him to come and speak into your life and lead you through whatever it is that you may be facing.
